'nice to know 3-day shipping and handling is included.

I wonder if they're Kirkland Signature brand?

Will anyone price match?

Glad there's not a rebate, 'cause I'll never know if it came in...

Thanks, Costco.

That is fricking hilarious.

I've actulally heard that some sealing devices cause the body to explode, since the CO2 that is produced by anaerobic bacteria in/on the body can't be released. The theory is that, with time, the pressure builds up in the casket -- and then ka-boom.

But that might just be an urban legend. :disgust:

Actually, according to the episode of BS that Penn and Teller did about the funeral business, adding the gasket actually turns the casket into a huge pressure cooker as the gases from your decomposing body build up. Basically, the tremendous pressure does nasty things to your corpse before the casket eventually explodes underground.

Shall we call this deal "Dead"?

so even after embaulming, the body still decomposes like that? by your theory, that guy with his wife in a coffin for a coffee table should have her remains allover the inside of his cofee table!
 
Wow, I die to get a hot casket deal like that. I'd want a flat panel TV built in the top door, though.

There are only a few states that they can ship to. I think many states have laws so the funeral homes can make a killing when they sell the caskets for three times the price Costco is charging. Its hard to get a deal on a casket.
 
Great find.

Although I have always yold people to bury me in a Dell desktop shipping box (Yes I can fit into one) and put me out with the trash. The savings will buy a few of $275 PowerEdge servers and $750 off $1,500 notebooks with enough left over for a bigass party.
 
Lol, does this item qualify for Costco's liberal return policy? This is smoking if there's a Lifetime Guarantee!!!
 
For sale: Casket, only used once.

Actually, for caskets those are quite cheap and not a bad deal at all. If a family member died, it'd definately be worth looking into to cut down majorly on the funeral expenses.
